Clinical Guidance from Mind Redefined
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder — better known as OCD — is one of the most misrepresented mental health conditions in popular culture. It is far more than 'liking things tidy' or being particular about organization. For individuals living with clinical OCD, intrusive obsessions and repetitive compulsions can consume hours every single day.
Modern OCD treatment in Mohali centers on Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapy (CBT) combined with Exposure and Response Prevention (E/RP). Through guided exposure, patients gradually face feared situations while blocking compulsive rituals, allowing anxiety to naturally extinguish.
At Dr. Ruchi Gupta’s clinic, specialized E/RP and cognitive therapy help children, adolescents, and adults break free from the OCD cycle with lasting internal strategies.
